    I had a counselor in the US whose last name was D*ckman.
    Here in the Netherlands there's a 'Monster' and also 'Sexbierum' (which would kinda translate into sexbeer'em).

    Edit: 'D*ck' is also a common first name in the Netherlands. Just like 'Kok' (Cook) as a last name. We had a prime minister with that last name.

    Just outside Buffalo, there's a funeral home called "Amigone". I always read it as Am I Gone? :laugh:

    Almost every one of my relatives had their funerals there. :-)

    The people who own it do not see the humor.

    I remember driving to Florida (in Tennessee maybe?) and taking a photo of a sign that read "Big Bone Lick"

    And here in Ontario there is a town called "Kinmount"

    There is also a town called "*kitten*" in Newfoundland, and yes, they really do have "*kitten* Days"
    LOL Yep! That's a State Park...and I'm pretty sure you're correct, it's in TN. We were going to stop there, but they were closed for the season.

    Maybe I missed it, I can't believe nobody has mentioned Intercourse, PA

    I've also always thought Truth or Consequences, NM was a great name.

    I forgot to add the Fu King Smoke Shop in Farmington NM and Truth or Concequences NM which is the home of the Elephant Butte lake; every time we go there my kids ask me when we are going to the Elephant Butt lake. I have also been asked by my oldest son why they would name a lake after an elephants butt. lol

    I saw a truck go by the other day. The company name on the side of it read "WESSUC"

    Someone really should have thought about that name more thoroughly before they decided to use it.

    Oh, and there's a village not far from here called "Bullocks Corners"

    Oh Australia is awesome for this. Suburbs in my home city: Inaloo, C*ckburn, Munster. Not filthy, but just ridiculous sounding: Manjimup, Wooloomoloo, Mundijong. Terry Pratchett wonderfully made fun of us by calling two towns "Bugerup" and "Didjabringabeeralong".

    Wonderful businesses: IFAP. You don't spend enough time on the internet if you don't find that funny.

    Also: Schindler's Lifts. They make elevators. I laughed like crazy when I first found their logo inside one.

    Love the Aussies and Terry Pratchett is Brilliant!

    We used to drive by the Ho Hum restaurant all the time on the way from New York to Baltimore. I think it was somewhere in PA, but I don't know if it's there anymore.

    Now on the way from Tallahassee to St. George Island is the Ho Hum Campground.

    My personal favorite is Coxsackie NY
